openings still at 263. Still a way too high number though. The reg/cow/belle merger sure would help things out there though! Maybe if we have 2 or 3 more of those the openings will be a bit more reasonable. I take it that merger will combine into 2 worlds? Or would it be into 1? Id think 2 as each world has between 10 and 14 openings?

One of the better solutions would be if the worlds with 10-12 openings looked at themselves, asked "Why do we have 10-12 openings?", made an actual attempt to find out way and then made an attempt to resolve those problems instead of saying "This is a good world."
